Since getting my port, the left side of my chest where the port was placed is extremely sore. I cannot wear a shirt or any clothing over my port site. This has caused me to have to be creative with my clothing choices. I have camisole tops which have a shelf bra and thin straps. When I wear the camisole, I keep the strap up over my right shoulder, but I do not put my left arm through my left shoulder strap. The camisole has enough elasticity, using just the right shoulder strap which keeps everything cover in the front.
Since wearing just a camisole is rather chilly, I also wear a zip-up fleece. I again wear the jacket over my right shoulder, but I allow the left side of the fleece to hang off my left shoulder. I use the zipper to partially close the jacket.
The other night, I entered the living room to speak to my dad. When he glanced my direction, I saw him quickly fix his gaze back on the television screen. My father would not look at me during our conversation. I thought it was odd, but perhaps he was really interested in watching his show.
When I arrived back in my room, I looked down at my fleece. To my horror, my jacket was only partially zipped up, and my camisole on my left side had slipped down. There was my girl hanging out! Oh my!!! I just flashed my father! No wonder he would not look at me. I break into laughter. I think to myself, "Well, my girl just wanted to pop out and say 'hi!'"
Ever since this incident, I always make sure everything is covered up when I leave my room. Moreover, I have started zipping up my fleece jackets as far up as possible so if one of the girls decides to say hi again, she will be covered up by the fleece.
